The new campus will offer approximately 125,000 square feet of hosted data storage, and is engineered to accommodate dense computing systems at over 250 watts per square foot. The new facility will be ready for customer installations by the summer of 2007.

Dave Ferdman, President and CEO of CyrusOne remarked, â€œThe increased demand for high availability and dense computing enterprise data centers has never been stronger. Many companies, as well as some of our customers, are moving toward dense computing due to the data processing capabilities. This expanded data center is a major step in our commitment to providing customers with scalable, cost-effective, forward-looking solutions.â€

CyrusOne chose to expand and build-out its existing data center to meet the growing demand for dense computing systems that provide increased performance and greater network uptime. This trend will only escalate in coming years; in fact, computer hardware manufacturers plan to ship 3 million blade servers in 2007, a 20 percent increase from 2006. Companies are moving to blades due to the low upfront ownership, advanced capacity in storage and flexibility of adding components. The cornerstone of dense computing architectures, blade servers rely on much greater power and cooling requirements than previous server generations and platforms.

The opening of the technology campus comes on the tail of a banner year in growth. CyrusOne posted 60 percent growth in 2006 revenue from year to date versus 2005 with dramatic increase in EBITDA. This significant increase was spurred by a boost in new customers, augmenting the companyâ€™s 99 percent renewal rate for existing contracts and expansions.

CyrusOne provides IT Infrastructure and Services for growing businesses in Houston and surrounding areas, including Colocation, Managed Hosting and Enterprise Management.
